A group of people, including police officers, are gathered in a newsroom; one man is on the phone while others react to a situation involving someone behind a desk. A woman in a striped suit appears concerned as a man in a suit gestures toward the desk area.
“What was that? He's in there! Give me the desk. Give me that phone. What a break.” 82:20 · “Stand back everybody! Get your guns out! He's harmless. Don't take any chances. Shoot right through the desk. He can't hurt anybody. You've got his gun.” 82:20 automatic transcript, may be wrong
The record
No renewal found An automated finding, not a verdict. A renewal would have appeared in the Copyright Office's renewal registrations 27 to 29 years after the term began. Those volumes are loaded and our parse of them found no matching renewal. If that is right, a work published 1931–1963 that was not renewed entered the public domain at the end of its 28th year; the volumes are OCR of old print, and the method page reports how often the parse has been found to miss one. Evidence dossier. The finding concerns the US copyright record for the film; it is not clearance for any use, and this page's annotation is machine output.
